Max: many thanks for taking the initiative in getting the SOIS discussions 
moving. However, I don't quite understand why you chose to use the third 
party web site www.proboards.com rather than just using the existing CCSDS 
mailing list at
sois-tcons at mailman.ccsds.org ? What extra services are provided by the 
proboards forum that aren't available by using the archived CCSDS mailing list?

On another subject, I have to say that I am really disappointed that the 
SOIS Area is almost totally invisible to the outside world. Other than if 
you go to http://www.ccsds.org/about/organization.html and click the SOIS 
Area on the picture (which gives you Patrick's e-mail address) I cannot 
find a single document related to SOIS on the CCSDS website. If you Google 
"CCSDS SOIF" you find the old P1K website at 
ftp://ftp.estec.esa.nl/pub/ws/wsd/ccsds/ccsdsoif/index.htm, but it hasn't 
been updated in more than 18-months.

The SOIS work is really important and needs to be very visible to the 
community. Would it be possible perhaps to resurrect the old CCSDS SOIF 
website and put some current information and documents on it?

Best regards
Adrian
